: In Illustrator, possible to apply one layer to another? I have the following: where the text "Panning" is on one layer, and the rectangular grey mask that covers it is on a different layer.

I have the following:



where the text "Panning" is on one layer, and the rectangular grey mask that covers it is on a different layer. I was wondering, is it possible that I can somehow apply the grey mask to just the text area, and not have the excess mask surrounding it?

Thanks.

Righ click on the text and choose Create Outlines. Then select all letters and make a Compound Path (Ctrl+8). Then place the image under the compound path, select them both and make a clipping mask (Ctrl+7).
